How can I export the principal curvature vectors in Meshlab?
I've only been able to export the discrete curvature values like Gaussian or Mean

How did you export the curvature values? – DrBwts Aug 20 '18 at 18:57

1The discrete curvature is placed in the quality field and can then be exported in for example ply format – Miguel Aug 23 '18 at 16:40
-
so if I export the PLY with just the 'quality' flag ticked then the 4th vertex column is the curvature? – DrBwts Aug 24 '18 at 12:49

1Yes, depending on which you calculated you'll get the mean curvature or the gaussian curvature – Miguel Aug 26 '18 at 13:21

were you able to get this done? – dhiraj suvarna Jul 10 '20 at 13:49

Eventually I just coded it myself in python. But two years have passed, so I don't know if this has been made available in the meantime. – Miguel Jul 13 '20 at 19:27

@Miguel, it has not still been implemented, it would be really helpful, if you can guide me on how to do it, so that I will save some time, as I am new to this. – dhiraj suvarna Jul 19 '20 at 07:29

Hi Dhiraj , you can check this link. Just keep in mind that this was developed for the lab of Prof. Kysar at Columbia University, so maybe give him a notice since I don't work there anymore. https://github.com/Marriaga/KysarCodes/blob/master/MA/MeshIO.py – Miguel Jul 20 '20 at 13:34
